that's what romney did last night. he was solid. he's in there. biden is going to flick all around and he's going to do all this little crap stuff. but he's insecure intellectually. anyone who pronounce it is tells me that he's afraid of his own brain power. they have ted olson simulating biden in the debate prep with paul ryan. i don't know how you simulate biden. you must have an unlit pilot room in the rehearsal space or unlit pilot light in the rehearsal space. that's how ted olson dumb it is down of the when they put that final hair plug into biden, they went in a little too deep with the ratchet, and i think they severed a discernment lobe up front. when he has to get out of the bubble, when he has to get out of the bubble at the end of this term and go back into the real world, he's going to be more screwed than jimmy witmore on the shahshank connection bagging groceries. he won't know how to be in the outside world. >> bill: you don't really like the vice president, do you, miller? >> i didn't like that in chains thing, billy. that's crap!
